Tetraoxidane is an inorganic compound of
hydrogen and
oxygen with the chemical formula H
2O
4.
[1]
[2]
[3] This is one of the unstable
hydrogen polyoxides.
[4]
The compound is prepared by a chemical reaction between hydroperoxyl radicals (HO2•) at low temperatures: [5] [6]
This is the fourth member of the polyoxidanes. The first three are water [(mon)oxidane],
hydrogen peroxide (dioxidane), and
trioxidane. Tetroxidane is more unstable than the previous compounds. The term "tetraoxidane" extends beyond the parent compound to several daughter compounds of the general formula R
2O
4, where R can be hydrogen, halogen atoms, or various inorganic and organic monovalent radicals. The two Rs together can be replaced by a divalent radical, so heterocyclic tetroxidanes also exist.

Tetroxidane autoionizes when in liquid form:
